Currently, the manager is in an alpha release, and offers support for patching out timeline ads on Twitter, or general advertisements on the official Reddit app, alongside the primary focus of adding quality of life features to both YouTube and YouTube Music. Now, however, the ReVanced Manager has been released, which simply and easily patches the YouTube app. Previously, users have been able to use the ReVanced patch, though it required building the patch from the source code. Additionally, this project is fully open-source, and you can follow its development on GitHub. ReVanced does those same things, but exists in the form of an Android app patch, as distributing a pre-patched. ReVanced came to be after Google went after the original YouTube Vanced app with a cease and desist, resulting in the end of the sideloadable Android app that allowed users to skip sponsors, ads, and other tweaks usually exclusive to the paid YouTube Premium subscription, but for free.

Rising from the ashes of YouTube Vanced is the ReVanced project, which has seen a major milestone with the release of the ReVanced Manager app.
